domestic co-financing

Abstract: The Global Fund achieved positive results on lives saved and financial and operational performance in 2022. However, disease incidence reduction progressed to slowly. While there were generally positive trends on key performance, indicators for resilient and sustainable systems for health, final targets were not met for some of them. The OIG 2022 Annual Report warns that the confluence of many major global risks threatens the ability of the Global Fund to deliver on its mission against the three diseases. Attention must therefore be paid to the findings set out in that report. OIG has also drawn attention to the fact that inadequate risk assessment and prioritization of country level interventions have slowed progress in mitigating sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment. Also disappointingly, the Agreed Management Actions Progress Report shows a trend of increasing delays in AMA completion which poses risks for improved grant performance. Steps are needed to identify the reasons for those delays in order to take effective remedial action.

ABSTRACT The Global Fund’s Grant Approvals Committee says that given India’s economic status, the government should assume greater responsibility for TB programmes, and should ultimately assume full responsibility.
